Our elected Texas legislators new session starts on
January 14,2025, will they burn through the session
fighting over school vouchers because Greg demands
they approve vouchers or he will have another pissy fit?
|

Greg was pissed off that school vouchers did
not pass during the previous legislative session.
He attacked Republican Texas State Reps
who did not vote for school vouchers by
giving money for anyone to defeat them.
Greg does not care if the Reps voted against
school vouchers because the people they
represent do not want them.
Is this an example of how money
buys our elected officials in Austin?
|
|
|
They want school vouchers because
of a decline in student enrollment?
|
|
|
If a private or religious school accepts Federal
or State money they lose their independence.
The Government can and will dictate what
is taught and displayed in the classroom.
As an example Hillsdale College
refuses any Federal or State money.
|
|
|
We cannot discriminate which religious school receives
Government money and which religious school does not.
|
|
|
When you take money from a public school and give
it to a private or religious school it reduces the money
your local school has for special needs children.
School vouchers are affordable when a State has extra money
but what happens when a State does not have extra money?
The state will reduce the amount of the vouchers.
The parents then will pay more of the tuition or return the child
back to the public school, if a private or religious school
loses too many students it might be forced to close.

Consider this fact:
We pay for our schools through property taxes, right?
A private home and apartment pays property taxes, right?
The difference is the apartment unit pays about 10%
of what the homeowner pays in property taxes.
The burden to pay for the school is on the homeowner.
So where does the money come from to give the
apartment renter the school voucher?
Government housing pays zero in property taxes,
where does the money come from for their vouchers?
